Bad call is often a subjective phrase. What may be a bad call to you, may not be a bad call to someone else. If the call was so completely, obviously missed (the runner beats the throw to first base by a good two steps, but is still called out) then, yes I will say bad call. Often though, the umpire typically has the better angle and can often see it much better then the person saying "bad call".OhioTex wrote:notes are a real value add to document all the secondary stuff.. WOW gold glove, Brain freeze, debatable error, Sun was in his eyes, great catch. my mom could have made that play.. Bad call, etc etc etc. notes are just flexible to do with what you want or not. so many odd plays can happen and this can explain them better.
Look at it this way: Take a dime, lay it on the ground and walk back 100 feet. Now look at the dime again from 100 feet away and tell me what the year on the dime is. Can you? Highly doubtful. Now take that same dime, and stand 6 inches away, can you tell me what year it was made in now? Probably. A lot of times, the key to the calls that are labeled "bad calls" are often no bigger then the year stamp on a dime.
And Tex, you should have known when you made the reference to a bad call, you knew I was going to say something
